1. General Information & Operation
Applications:
Sand separator for well applications
Standard Characteristics:
•
Filter housing material of construction: Carbon Steel ST37.2
•
Pre-treatment: sand blasting up to Sa 2.5 grade
•
Exterior & Interior coating: electrostatic oven baked polyester-epoxy powder
coating with a thickness of 150-200 micron
•
Connections: VIC, Male Threaded and Flange
•
Maximum recommended working pressure: 10 bars (145 psi).
•
Inlet is tangential to the body
•
Conical rubber protection or expendable connection on the joint between
hydrocyclone and the sedimentation tank
Operation:
Water enters the hydrocyclone via the tangential inlet which creates a spiral flow along
the walls of the filter. The centrifugal force separates the Suspended solids and sand
particles and pushes them towards the walls of the sand separator. Those particles
gravitate downwards and into the sedimentation tank, while clean water moves
upwards and exits through the top outlet. For the sand separator to operate correctly,
the lead loss must remain between 2-5m. The separation efficiency is not affected by
the accumulation of dirt in the sedimentation tank. The sedimentation tank is drained
by opening a flush valve for a few seconds manually or automatically by timer.
